Ponto¶

Ponto is a service that allows companies and professionals to aggregate their accounts in one place and directly see all their transactions within one app. It is a third-party solution that is continuously expanding the number of bank institutions that can be synchronized with Odoo.

Odoo can synchronize directly with your bank to get all bank statements imported automatically into your database.

Ponto is a paid third-party provider that can handle the synchronization between your bank accounts and Odoo. Its pricing is 4€/month per account/integration.

Note

You have to authorize all the accounts you want to access in Odoo, but Odoo will filter the accounts based on the institution you selected in the second step.

To do so, go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Online Synchronization and select the institution you want to fetch the other accounts. Click on Fetch Accounts button to start the flow.

During the update, select all the accounts you want to synchronize, even the ones coming from other banking institutions.

Don’t forget to keep authorization for existing accounts (for all institutions that you have synchronized with Ponto).

FAQ¶

After my synchronization, no account appears¶

You selected an institution from the list and did not authorize any accounts from this institution.

I have an error about that my authorization has expired¶

Every 3 months (90 days) you must re-authorize the connection between your bank account and Ponto. This must be done from the Ponto website. If you do not do this, the synchronization will stop for these accounts.

I have some errors with my beta institution¶

Ponto provides institutions in beta, these institutions are not directly supported by Odoo and we advise you to contact Ponto directly.

Important

Using an institution in beta is beneficial for Ponto, it allows them to have real feedback on the connection with the institution.
